Genie Garage Door Does Not Stop

You may need to give the cord a slight yank to reconnect.

Genie garage door does not stop.

The method to reengage the carriage depends on the model of garage door opener you own. This had the effect that the metal hook is now almost at the motor and when i manually open the garage the plastic catch does not reach the metal hook to fit it in place. Pull emergency release cord and knob toward the motor. Your garage door may be disconnected from the opener.

I accidentally activated the opening of my automatic garage door even though it was physically locked with the lockbar at the side of the door. If an operational problem exists and the garage door opener will not close the opener can be forced to close. If this is the reason you will need to reengage the carriage. Incorrectly set limit switches may prevent your garage door from closing completely.

Press and hold the wall console button until the garage door is completey closed. See your owner s manual for more details. Check for interference from adjacent photo eye sensors of any brand. Check that the emergency release cord has not been pulled.

You should now be able to operate the door using the genie garage door opener. Try to keep the cord as parallel to the rail of the garage door opener as possible. Door starts down then stops before it is closed.
